This collection brings together a range of leading researchers and theorists from across Europe to advance sociological understanding of generational relations, in terms of both the state and the family and how they are interlinked. Authors examine how changes, such as cuts in welfare provision, migration, urbanisation and individualisation influence intergenerational relations. This book addresses theoretical and policy issues connecting age and generation with the family and social policy and focuses both on cross-cultural comparison within societies and analysis across a range of societies. The Myth of Generational Conflict will be of interest to academics and researchers in sociology, social policy and ageing and to policymakers working in the field.
